EA SPORTS has teamed up with Monster to release all-new
gaming headphones in February 2013.
Unveiled at CES, the MVP Carbon weighs in at $269 and
features a mixamp, 5.1 surround and microphone, as well as
multi-platform compatibility with PC, Xbox 360,
PlayStation 3, Wii and Wii U.
The EA SPORTS MVP Carbon by Monster is the first headphone
to feature Monster HDHS (High Definition Headphone
Surround), which delivers realistic sound for gaming,
music and movies.
EA had previously partnered with computer peripherals
manufacturer Razer for "Battlefield 3" and "Mass Effect"
controllers, and with MadCatz for "The Sims"-branded mice.
MadCatz has also been presenting its own gaming devices at
CES 2013, with the GameSmart range of Bluetooth mice
(models R.A.T.M and M.O.U.S.9,) gamepads (model
C.T.R.L.R) and headsets (model F.R.E.Q.M). GameSmart
products utilize Bluetooth Smart technology, which will
enable controllers and mice to function through the
Bluetooth Smart stack and are game and hardware
independent.
